This currently requires gmp to be installed.

If you see some error like


external/pbc/arith/fieldquadratic.c:14:10: fatal error: gmp.h: No such file or directory
--
  | #include <gmp.h>
  | ^~~~~~~

Then install gmp with apt-get install libgmp3-dev for now.

Ideally, we should not depend on this to be installed and provide this via cc_library like we have done with pbc.

I made an attempt at this but found I was blocked as some of the headers are generated from autoconf. This is not natively supported with bazel.
